Don’t Fake It Till You Make It.

As an entrepreneur, I found the following article very helpful. It helped me see that I am not alone when I am stressed, and that it is okay to have feelings of vulnerability as a business owner. In fact, reading this article made me recognize that because I am ambitious, and have an energetic “go get ’em” personality, I’m also a magnet for stronger emotional roller-coasters. By recognizing these vulnerabilities, and knowing that I am not alone with these feelings, I can be comfortable expressing my business challenges, easily find healthy outlets to relieve stresses, and I don’t need to “fake it till I make it,” which this author believes is unhealthy. What do you think?

After reading this article, let us know who you feel. Do you think business owners need to continue hiding behind a mask? Would you do business with someone that is genuine and willing to show honest emotions?
